for several decades, scientists, naturalists, and concerned citizens around the world have been cautioning people against the careless use, abuse, and rapid disposal of plastics … fortunately, their message has not dissipated in intensity and it is increasingly more far-reaching … however, considering the explosive rate of global population growth, i wonder if the message is becoming diluted or more concentrated among the proliferating minds populating Earth today …

when i research certain environmental issues, i get the sense that there is such an impressive and inspiring abundance of data, evidence, information, and media available to the masses … i assume that therefore, everyone must realize and appreciate the scope and urgency of our situation — we’re all in this together; what happens to the plants and animals and soil and air and water is happening to humans, as well … even if it may not always directly and immediately be apparent — and i assume that therefore, everyone is shifting …

however, in my conversations with various people, i realize that there are still so many facts that the general public is really not aware of … ignorance is forgivable … ignorance is solved with education …

for people who don’t live in coastal areas or who have not yet seen, first hand, the pollution that befouls Earth’s oceans, watching spectacular and informative documentaries such as planet earth, blue planet, and national geographic explorer raises your awareness through persuasive narratives that inspire, awe, shock, and dismay … even youtube can be a fabulous, free resource for people with short attention spans (this short video is extremely impelling) …

in all cases, the purpose is to fuel your passion, ignite action, and effect change in your perspectives, habits, and lifestyles …

Looks like a sweet blog, is this wordpress? I’ve made a few pages myself and ain’t easy. Thanks for taking time to writing this up.

You actually make it seem really easy with your presentation but I’m finding this topic to be something I by no means understand. It sort of feels too complex and extremely extensive for me. I am taking a look ahead in your subsequent publish, I’ll try to get the grasp of it!

Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything. But just imagine if you added some great photos or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with pics and clips, this blog could undeniably be one of the greatest in its field. Terrific blog!
